Hi,
I have a directory that is used to store files generated by another application. Each file is huge and can take some time to produce.
I am writing a shell script to check the names and dates of the files and do some functions on the ones that are not being written out.
My question is, if I... (3 Replies)
Hello All
I am attempting to write a shell script (bourne shell script) which will copy a tar'd and compressed file from a directory to a staging area but will not know whether the file is still open for write since files are being ftp's to my site at random times during the day.

I would just like to ask about an issue I encountered. There is a Java program (version1.3) that we use that is hosted in Unix (HP-UX B.11.11 U), and one of its functions copies a file and writes it to another directory. It usually runs fine, but one day, it wrote a file that had 000... (2 Replies)

Hopefully someone can help.
We have a process that writes a file using Connect Direct to our local Solaris server and then our C++ program will pick up the file and process it. Unfortunately, because of the size of the file, the C++ program is processing the file before it has finished... (7 Replies)

cksum
cksum(3tcl) Cyclic Redundancy Checks cksum(3tcl)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
cksum - Calculate a cksum(1) compatible checksum
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.2
package require cksum ?1.1.3?
::crc::cksum ?-format format? ?-chunksize size? [ -channel chan | -filename file | string ]
::crc::CksumInit
::crc::CksumUpdate token data
::crc::CksumFinal token
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
This package provides a Tcl implementation of the cksum(1) algorithm based upon information provided at in the GNU implementation of this
program as part of the GNU Textutils 2.0 package.
COMMANDS
::crc::cksum ?-format format? ?-chunksize size? [ -channel chan | -filename file | string ]
The command takes string data or a channel or file name and returns a checksum value calculated using the cksum(1) algorithm. The
result is formatted using the format(3tcl) specifier provided or as an unsigned integer (%u) by default.
OPTIONS -channel name
Return a checksum for the data read from a channel. The command will read data from the channel until the eof is true. If you need
to be able to process events during this calculation see the PROGRAMMING INTERFACE section
-filename name
This is a convenience option that opens the specified file, sets the encoding to binary and then acts as if the -channel option had
been used. The file is closed on completion.
-format string
Return the checksum using an alternative format template.
PROGRAMMING INTERFACE
The cksum package implements the checksum using a context variable to which additional data can be added at any time. This is expecially
useful in an event based environment such as a Tk application or a web server package. Data to be checksummed may be handled incrementally
during a fileevent handler in discrete chunks. This can improve the interactive nature of a GUI application and can help to avoid excessive
memory consumption.
::crc::CksumInit
Begins a new cksum context. Returns a token ID that must be used for the remaining functions. An optional seed may be specified if
required.
::crc::CksumUpdate token data
Add data to the checksum identified by token. Calling CksumUpdate $token "abcd" is equivalent to calling CksumUpdate $token "ab"
followed by CksumUpdate $token "cb". See EXAMPLES.
::crc::CksumFinal token
Returns the checksum value and releases any resources held by this token. Once this command completes the token will be invalid. The
result is a 32 bit integer value.
EXAMPLES
% crc::cksum "Hello, World!"
2609532967
% crc::cksum -format 0x%X "Hello, World!"
0x9B8A5027
% crc::cksum -file cksum.tcl
1828321145
% set tok [crc::CksumInit]
% crc::CksumUpdate $tok "Hello, "
% crc::CksumUpdate $tok "World!"
% crc::CksumFinal $tok
